I remember last year that Fisi fella drove for Ferrari and was often 8/10ths to 1 second slower than the other guy and he was a current F1 driver at the time. No doubt Michael has had lots of practice but I think it'll still take him a while to settle into the team and car and F1 speeds again, but I think even just being a little down on his teammate is pretty good going.
I don't think Michael would have come back if he didn't have the passion, he doesn't strike me as someone who wants to just make up the numbers or grab the £££, unlike maybe some F1 returnees of the past. I wouldn't be surprised if his contract value is a fraction of what it used to be, and neither is he ever short of cash either
